Just recently bought some sandblasted Stanley planes here in NE Ohio. It’s amazing to hold a Type 7 No. 4 in your hand( S casting) and it looks brand new🤷🏻♂️‼️ The antique store charged $150 for it and for a rosewood handled No. 40,$100!⁉️⁉️🖤

Love your videos and the amount of work and dedication you put on every plane and every part of them. I will eventually buy one from you even if I don't need it! Just for the pleasure of owning a piece of such detailed work. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and talent!

Hey Devil Dog.....I just started restoring hand planes about a year ago, with 3 completed and 2 in progress. Learning as I go, but with a lot of questions still on how-to's. I am so glad I found your channel. Can't wait to finish watching the rest of your videos. Thank you so much for sharing all of this valuable information. I would also like to PM you to ask about one of the transitional planes that I found in NH this summer that has no markings on it. After scouring the interweb for hours, I can't find an exact match as to the manufacturer.....thanks from another Leatherneck.

The 'Line' is a dent from the lever hitting the edge of the cap when it is pried open.

The line is from the lever being snapped up and hitting the body of the lever cap. It's better not being there. 🙈

Could you remove the chrome with some kind of acid? Also, what do you use as a flat base for your lapping station?

I used evaporust on my type 13 no. 6 lever cap and it tarnished it and turned it black. It did get rid of the rust, but now I have the black to contend with. It seems about as hard to sand off as the rust.

I have an old "K" series Keen Kutter lever cap (bedrock) and it doesn't have the flat piece of metal on the back. Is it supposed to? It doesn't even look like there is a place for the rivet/screw to hold it in place.

I've watched the videos in order but seem to have missed which one shows you lapping the plane flat, this is always the biggest problem I have with my own planes and could do with some tips to improve my efforts. Could you let me know which one I need to see? Thanks

love your work, I restore my hand plane according to your videos.. i had a small problem, it seems that the previous owner of the hand plane i owned decide to tighten the blades using the screw, not the tension spring on the lever cap and it left the cap deeply dented... is it possible to fix it? thanks before,..
